I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for the talent He has bestowed on all of us!
I have been artistic all of my life and love experimenting with different mediums and techniques. This blog is my creative outlet to share my passion for cardmaking and papercrafting!

Ink
the wheelbarrow image from the ODBD Seasons Change
stamp set using archival black ink, stamp onto white cardstock and color the
image using a brown watercolor pencil (adding shadows without water for
contrast).

Use
the ODBD
Wheelbarrow Die to cut out the image and mount the wheelbarrow image onto
the card front with dimensional foam.

1 Thess 5:18a "In Everything Give Thanks" is a reminder that we, as Christians, should be thankful at all times- sometimes difficult to do during stressful or difficult situations (life can be messy:-)). But if we focus on Christ, remember what He has done for us, remember that we are "strangers in this land" and that our eternal home will be with Christ, it is easier to "give thanks" in all things! With each passing day we are closer to His return- what a wonderful Savior and we truly do have so much to be thankful for!!

I am blessed by each of you when you take the to visit my blog and I do read all of the comments- you are such an encouragement to me! Hugs and I hope you have a fabulous weekend, my friends!

Hi Julie - I selfishly seldom comment but I love all your artwork. The one-color treatment on this wheelbarrow filled with usually colorful items is perfection with each element clearly and beautifully defined. And the background and bow are perfect! You are so talented.

This is beautiful, Julie! I love how your intricate frames suit perfectly the vintage/sepia feel you have given your gorgeous wheelbarrow image and your sentiment. Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week :-)

Love your combination of rustic image with all those intricate borders and die cut details Julie. The soft vintage colour combination really adds to the atmosphere as well.Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.
